Emergence definition

Airsoft is an activity that builds upon the dynamic patterns of action and motion, where energy flows through space, creating a sequence of movements and transformations, which we perceive as action unfolding over time, and motion as a change in position or state of an object over time, involving energy and space, resulting in a game or shooting sport.
